[QUOTE="katya02, post: 191602, member: 2884"] I'm sorry you're getting such a runaround from the school, Holly. The teacher (and school district) has to follow the law, not ' only do whatever the school district allows'. They can't ignore the law, and the size of the class is irrelevant to your child's rights under IDEA. I agree with the others that an advocate who knows the law inside out will be your best ally. He/she will be able to see and cut out the BS immediately and inform the school team that the process will move on to a complaint/hearing if necessary. In the past I've found that simply having someone who knows the law and the pertinent legal phrasing and who calls the school reps on their stonewalling gets amazing cooperation. Sad but true. I became very disillusioned with the schools after years of this. [/QUOTE]
